Multiple download directories for iTunes

I want to save my iTunes U files in a different location than my regular music. Is there a way to do this?
Currently, when I download an iTunes U video, it stores it in /iTunes/iTunes U/ but I'd like to save it in a completely different directory -- something like ~/Desktop/iTunes U/.
The reason for doing this is somewhat complex and involves the way I've set up iTunes with Dropbox.

No, iTunes doesn't have settings to allow different media types to be stored in different locations. Perhaps Doug's Scripts will have something you can use to relocate some of the content semi-automatically once it has been downloaded.

    Hello aristilus2,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with iTunes.  I suggest removing and reinstalling iTunes for the issue you described.  The following article has steps to do this, and I recommend removing iTunes and all related componenets as outlined in the article:

  • When I select a title in the iTunes Store and click on Play in iTunes I am sent to the download page for iTunes 10 which I have already. The selected title cannot be found anywhere in my iTunes. How can I get the title in iTunes with possibility to buy it

    When I select a title in the iTunes Store and click on Play in iTunes I am sent to the download page for iTunes 10 which I have already. The selected title cannot be found anywhere in my iTunes. How can I get the title in iTunes with possibility to buy it?

    The issue is that your credit or debit card credentials must be associated with the same country where you reside in order to purchase iTunes content.
    "Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location. You can use the iTunes Store in all countries of which you’re a resident, but you’ll either need a separate iTunes Store account for each one, or you’ll need to continually be switching the billing information on your single account. Generally, it’s simpler just to set up an alternative account for these situations, although it’s worth nothing that features like iTunes in the CLoud and iTunes Match are designed to work best when using a single iTunes Store account, as you can only switch accounts with these services every 90 days."

    How can one fix a "download error" for itunes on an iphone?

    Hi..
    First, try resetting your iPhone.
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    Then restart the device.    Hold the power button until "slide to power off" appears.  Slide to power off.  After it is off, press the power button to turn it back on.

  • Using multiple Apple ids for iTunes match

    Hi,
    I have one Apple id that I use for downloading music and apps on both iTunes and my ios devices, as well as itunes match. I have another that I use for for icloud. My iTunes match subscription is due to expire and I want to use my icloud apple id as my new iTunes Match apple id. If I made purchases with the prior apple id, and used that id for iTunes Match, and now want to change the iTunes Match apple id to my icloud apple id, will iTunes Match sync my music with the new apple id even though the purchases were made on the older id? Or do I have to use the same apple id for iTunes Match that I used to purchase the music in my iTunes library?
    Hope my question makes sense.
    Thanks,
    Steven

    iTunes Match can not be transferred to another Apple ID. It is a associated with the iTunes Store account ID you used to purchase it. You can, however, change your Apple ID: http://support.apple.com/kb/HE40

  • Need Alternate Download Link for iTunes

    Greetings,
    I have a frustrating dilemma that I am hoping to find assistance for. I offer computer support to a small rural community. Most of the people here are elderly and using dial-up access or a very slow DSL service.
    Here is my frustration - my computer is Linux, my Mac is an older very slow G3 that mostly sits in the corner. I would love to use my Linux computer to download all of the Apple/Mac updates for my clients but the latest versions of iTunes and Safari are inaccessible because the Apple link will not let me access downloads for Mac (for some inexplicable reason it thinks that I am on a Windows computer).
    So where can I find a legitimate download link for the latest versions of iTunes and Safari?
    This morning I've downloaded almost 1GB of updates for clients I will be seeing over the next few days but I won't be able to update either iTunes or Safari.
    Any assistance is much appreciated.

    Hi, Gail,
    I see you found and answer.
    For the future, though, even if your browser is being registered as being on Windows (probably happening since Apple doesn't have an iTunes for Linux), you should still be able to download iTunes for Mac. When you get to the Windows iTunes download page, scroll down and look down the left-hand side of the page. You should see a link that says "Get iTunes for Macintosh". Click that and you should be taken to the iTunes for Mac download page where you can download the Mac installer. It works from my Windows system, anyway.
    As to Safari, you should be able to get the latest versions here:
    http://support.apple.com/downloads/Safari3_2_1_forLeopard
    http://support.apple.com/downloads/Safari3_2_1_forTiger
    For other versions, click on the Support tab above, go to Support Downloads, and search for "Safari".
    Regards.

  • RECEIVING MULTIPLE DOWNLOAD ERROR ON ITUNES

    receiving multiple downlad errors on itune songs........how do i delet them so I can re-download them?

    I found the answer to my question in another part of this discussion forum.  I'm adding it here in case someone else sees my original post and wants to see the solution.
    To get rid of the download error, go to the download page and find the small down-pointing arrow icon next to the "download error. Tap to retry." text.  Put your finger on the down-pointing arrow icon and flick (quick short swipe) to the left.  The down-pointing arrow icon will be replaced with a "delete" button.  Tap the delete button.  Then confirm the delete in the modal popup window.
    That's it.  An easy solution, even though it took me many hours to find the answer.

  • Downloaded itunes to a new computer (W-Vista) and my itunes work except for itunes store - it just shows a download page for itunes 10

    I had itunes 8, and today downloaded the new itunes 10 and now i have issues.

    1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
    above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.

  • Where do i download viualisers for itunes???

    I have macbook pro and a dates imac i spent a ton on theses...where are they & they wont work with my new mini mac..frustrated here.HELP

    The most current version of iTunes is iTunes 11, which you can download from the iTunes tab above.
    As to the update problem, that will happen if you have apps from another iTunes Store account on your system, as is very likely the case if your daughter synched her iPhone to your computer. The only way around the problem is to delete from your iPad the apps purchased through her account and set iTunes on your computer not to sync those apps to your iPad.
    Regards.

  • Multiple LDAP directories for authentication

    Hi,
    I just upgraded to GroupWise 2014 (from 2012). In GW2012 I used LDAP authentication against eDir. In GW2014, I associated the GW mailboxes to Active Directory. I tested a few accounts and I can login just fine. However I also have mailboxes that have to authenticate to eDir, because (for now) they don't have AD equivalent accounts.
    To achieve this, I also added the eDirectory as a directory in the GW admin console. I then enabled LDAP authentication in the Post Office security settings, without adding the "Available LDAP Servers" to the "Selected LDAP Servers" box.
    When I logon to a mailbox that is associated to eDir, it allows me to logon. I do have a mailbox that doesn't allow me to logon, although it is associated to eDir. When I re-associate (remove-add) it, it works for a while only to stop working again. It's not entirely stable.
    In the POA log, I see the following message: Alert: Utilize LDAP server which is not in the pool configuration! So it would seem it doesn't particularly like my setup.
    Questions:
    * Is what I'm trying to achieve not supported or am I configuring it wrong?
    * If I add the "Available LDAP Servers" to the "Selected LDAP Servers" box will it use it a failover pool and thus mess up my mixed-directory authentication?
    * Is it possible to use GroupWise authentication for some mailboxes and AD authentication for others. If so, it would take away the need to use eDir.
    Iwan

    It's not an error, just informational. The LDAP AUTH code for the POA has changed somewhat in 2014. Before, it used to only use LDAP servers in a pool, but now, it will first try any LDAP servers/directories in it's "Preferred list", but if it can't not find the user using that list, it will then proceed to try all other LDAP servers that are configured.

    >>> iwan<[email protected]> 1/9/2015 5:16 AM >>>
    Hi,
    I am able to authenticate to AD en edir within the same PO. I would like
    to phase out edir as maintaining two directories is not ideal. The only
    reason I still use edir is for those few GW accounts that do not have AD
    counterparts and for which I do not want to create AD accounts. So using
    LDAP(AD) together with GW auth would be ideal for me. I'll look into
    creating a second PO for this purpose.
    I just wonder why the POA log keeps displaying the following message, if
    having multiple directories in a single PO is supported: "Utilize LDAP
    server which is not in the pool configuration!"

  • Downloads Available for iTunes: 118 -- Downloads Received: 0

    Ok Apple, I upgraded my library as you desired. I paid over $29 for the upgrade as stated in my purchase history. You have 118 of my songs which I get an error for that the iTunes Store is unavailable. Then I get another link an hour later for 30 songs, another $6...I'm thankful for the delivery of the 30 songs, but I'd like my remaining 118, please.
    Also, your Report a Problem link on this order isn't working. It takes me back to the list of songs I ordered, not to the Report screen. Report a Problem works on the other orders I'd placed in my history.
    Beware all....before you upgrade your library. Apparently there are bugs which are costing people money.

    There are several threads on the same topic. I have a feeling their billing system is severely overloaded. I've heard a number of people have had no issues- they click Buy and their songs are downloaded.
    With me, every time I try I get a dialog saying to wait for an email- but each time it's an email that says they can't process my (correct, working) payment info. It's very disappointing. And ditto on the report not working. Doesn't seem to be a way to submit a support ticket at all.

  • I can't see the download page for iTunes

    I'm trying to download iTunes 5, but everytime I click on the link or get sent to the page, only the info part of the page loads, and the part with the "Download" Button WON'T show up. I really want to update, but I can't get the stupid page to load. HELP!!

    After being told by Apple technical support that this was a browser issue and they could do nothing (including refusing to send iTunes 5 to me on CD) I started looking at this forum. Before coming across this discussion I came across a multitude of discussions regarding very serious problems with iTunes 5 if you are on a wireless network.
    Has anyone that used this approach to get the "Download button" to appear installed on a wireless network and had no further issues? At this point I'm not inclined to upgrade.
    Thanks for any help out there and shame on Apple.
